Weekend Reads & Eats

What I’m Reading

A French woman’s guide to unabashedly loving butter

NPR’s profile of Janet Guthrie, the first woman to compete at the Indy 500

Astronaut Mike Massimino’s memoir Spaceman. It’s funny and inspirational and darn impressive

What I’m Cooking

Since it’s been so hot I’ve been swapping out sheet pan dinners for Instant Pot dinners to avoid turning on the oven. This golden chicken and rice has been a hit

An all-green everything snap pea and mint salad. Perfect for Memorial Day Weekend BBQs

Charity I Support

On Memorial Day weekend, I want to highlight Wounded Warriors Family Support. WWFS supports families of service members who were severely wounded or killed in combat by providing free family retreats, support for caregivers, and welding training for vets.
